Any word on new story content?

[StonedMagician]

After Dawn of the Morninglight, are there ANY plans for new content for SWL, or is Funcom purely focused on other games at this point?

Well... They sort of promised additional content in South Africa AND continuation of storyline in Congo, but I'm not really sure. Anyway, it'll take a while.

Play another mmorpg (in my opinion StarWars The Old Republic) cause it's gonna be a F*cking year until we get more content (and hope it isnt 4 missions with 3 limited time lootboxes)

Soon (tm)

I would anticipate more installments of missions using the existing South Africa map and assets. There are obvious gaps in the Achievement section for that zone where more missions would go, particularly with respect to Investigation missions. When would those happen? Dunno. If you were around when the Tokyo map launched, I would expect new installments to take at least as long as those did. More likely longer due to the internal shakeup.

As for getting beyond South Africa to the next area mentioned in the story, that doesn't even merit a "Soon(TM)" at this point. It will not be soon, as that's substantially more labor intensive. It's not even worth talking about until at least two more rounds of mission installments ("Issues" in TSW lingo) have hit South Africa.

There will be further missions in Summer-to-Fall, and there is the obvious leadup to bigger content that I won't dare to hope to happen by the end of the year but it better be 2019.

There's other hinted features that may include story missions or story-related content.

Hey all,

With the anniversary celebrations winding down, we figured this was a good opportunity to talk a little bit about upcoming missions, due in the coming weeks. One of these new missions will be a new action sabotage mission set in New Dawn that may help answer a loose thread you encountered in South Africa.

The other missions, which we focused on based on your feedback on the forums, are three Faction Ranking Missions, redesigned for Secret World Legends: Into Darkness, Venetian Missile Crisis, and Rogue Agent!

More details will be available with the official release of these missions, but here’s a quick rundown of what to expect:

South Africa:

Titled “Public Enemy Number One”
Will focus on your mysterious assailant occupying New Dawn with you
“Land of the Dawn” achievement will become possible to obtain

Faction Ranking Missions

Unlocks at Lv50 and at a certain IP level
Completing the missions increases Faction Ranks (11-13, with uniforms)
Rewards include:
Additional Agent Network mission slot
New faction-specific agent (1 for each faction)
Faction-specific mask cosmetics (1 for each faction)
New Legends & Achievements
No Aux weapon. Sorry!

The Faction Ranking Missions are also our first foray into scaling difficulties outside of dungeons and scenarios. You can expect Elite-level requirements to be able to even accept these missions, but as your character grows in power, additional difficulties become available for you to choose from. Increased difficulties net additional rewards.

Finally, please note that all the content in this patch will be free - you won’t need to pay to access these missions or to obtain their rewards.

Okay, that’s about it for now - thanks for reading, and stay tuned for more soon!
